This study was carried out in order to study early histologic changes and repair reaction appling to extrusive force for 3rd premolar of adult dogs. After 1 week of extrusive force with elastic chain, one of dogs was sacrified and after 3 weeks retention period, another dog was sacrified. The paraffin sections of samples were stained with Hematoxylin - Eosin and Masson's Trichrome and were examed by light microscopy . The obtained results as follows 1. In Hematoxylin - Eosin and Masson Trichrome stain of control group , the periodontal ligament width was constant from apical third to cervical third of the root and periodontal fiber arrangement was horizontal or oblique in cervical third. oblique in middle third, oblique in apical third of root. in alveolar bone, smooth appearance was shown 2. In Group 1, all periodontal fiber arrangement was oblique toward tooth, and the periodontal ligament width increased Partially PDL was ruptured in apex. In MT stain, immature bone formation was seen at alveolar crest area. Active bone formation was observed along the one side of alveolus, and apical portion of pulp was involved with blood vessel rupture , vacuolization of pulp tissue and hyperemia 3. In Group 2, most periodontal ligament arrangement and PDL width was repaired and fiber density increased. In MT stain, mineralization of immature bone on the alveolar crest was progressed. In pulp, vacuole and hyperemia was diminished and fibrotic change was diminished 4. After 3 week periodontal ligament has more repair ability than pulp tissue. pulp was involved with vacuolization and fibrosis, so it takes more time for repair.

연구 목적: 난소에서 분비되는 스테로이드 호르몬인 에스트로젠과 프로게스테론은 포유동물의 생식기관 발달과 정상적인 생식 기능, 수정과 배아의 착상에 중요한 역할을 한다. 특히 에스트로젠은 자궁내액을 내강으로 분비하여 자궁부종 기작에 중요한 역할을 한다. 자궁내액은 정자의 수정능력 획득과 착상전 배아의 발달에 매우 중요하다. Aquaporin (AQP)은 막관통 물수송 단백질로서 여러 조직에 넓게 분포되어 있으며, 세포간 또는 상피세포간 물의 이동에 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 생쥐 자궁에서 스테로이드 호르몬에 의해 조절되는 자궁내액의 이동에 AQP 유전자가 관여하는지를 알아보았다. 연구 재료 및 방법: 난소 절제술을 시행한 생쥐에 스테로이드 호르몬을 피하주사하고 6, 12, 24시간 간격으로 자궁조직을 적출하였다. 대조군은 sesame oil만을 주사한 후 6시간째에 수획한 자궁조직을 사용하였으며, 실험군은 시간대별과 스테로이드 처리별로 채취한 자궁조직에서 역전사중합효소반응을 수행하였다. 역전사중합효소반응을 통해 막관통 단백질인 AQP-4, -5, -8 mRNA의 발현양상을 살펴보았다. 또한 mRNA의 위치를 살펴보기 위해 laser microdissection을 이용하여 RT-PCR을 수행하였다. 마지막으로 자궁조직내에서의 단백질 발현 부위를 관찰하기 위해 면역조직화학염색을 실시하였다. 결 과: AQP-4, -5, -8 mRNA은 프로게스테론을 처리한 군보다 에스트로젠을 처리한 군에서 많이 발현되었으며, 에스트로젠을 주사한 지 6시간째 발현정도를 대조군과 비교할 때 AQP-4, -5, -8 mRNA가 각각 7.9배, 2.8배, 3.8배로 나타났다. AQP-4, -5, -8 mRNA는 간충조직보다 자궁내 상피조직에서 스테로이드 호르몬의 영향을 받아 발현양상의 차이가 나타났으며, 주로 에스트로젠의 영향을 받아 발현이 증가하였다. AQP-4 단백질은 에스트로젠을 24시간 처리한 후 프로게스테론을 처리한 군의 자궁내 상피조직에서 많이 발현되었으며, AQP-5와 -8 단백질은 에스트로젠을 처리한 군의 자궁내 상피조직에서 발현이 증가하였다. 결 론: 이상의 결과를 통해 AQP-4, -5, -8은 주로 에스트로젠에 의해 자궁내 상피세포에서 발현이 증가되는 것으로 보아 에스트로젠의 영향하에 일어나는 자궁내액의 이동으로 인한 자궁부종기작에 이동통로로서 관여하는 것으로 사료된다.

This study is desinged to examine the effects of Taheebo(Tabebuia avellanedae) extract on the prostate of male rats as a natural radiation protection agent. Taheebo extract is well known to inhibit cell growth for the cell lines of breast and prostate cancer. In this study, the X-ray 7 Gy was irradiated in the prostate of male rat to identify radiation protection effects by Taheebo Extracts, 1, 7, and 21 Days later, hematological changes, external toxicity assessments(LDH), antioxidant enzyme(SOD) activity changes and tissue change were observed. IR+TH group showed greater lymphocyte levels than the irradiation group, which is believed to affect the hematopoietic immune system's resilience. As a results of the external toxicity assessment, Taheebo extract's toxicity is maximum 18.128±5.16%, minimum 13.6945±4.43%. Taheebo is considered to be of little toxicity. The composition of prostate cell nuclei and cytoplasm in Control and TH group was honogeneous, whereas the cell nucleus cohesion in the prostate in irradiation group and inflammatory reactions in cytoplasm were shown. IR+TH group showed less inflammatory reactions of cytoplasm in the prostate than in the radiation irradiation group, but showed a cohesive phenomenon of cell nuclei. It is judged that Taheebo extract has radiation protection against prostate cells.

It is the first step to survive cardiac arrest for the general public to recognize cardiac arrest rapidly. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effective method of education by analyzing the degree of cardiac arrest recognition after performing the agonal breathing education in a video lecture or instructor-led lecture. The study subjects were assigned to either a video lecture or instructor-led lecture in a randomized way and were compared after the education according to the degree of recognition of cardiac arrest in the randomized controlled study. The study was conducted from October 30, 2015 to October 31, 2015. And the study subjects were 104 youths aged 15 years or older, of which 52 were selected as the experimental group and the remaining 52 as the control group. The results did not show a significant difference between these two groups when the subjects are given the video lecture where patients showed no reaction or sign of breathing(p=0.741). However, in the video lecture where there was no reaction of patients but still sign of agonal breathing, 43 people(82.7%) in the experimental group and 33 people(63.5%) in control group have successfully performed CPR and there has been a significant difference (p=0.006). Therefore, we could conclude that video lecture was more efficient than instructor-led lecture when teaching CPR.

The present study was designed to evaluate the effects of dietary vitamin E and coenzyme $Q_{10}$ supplementation on adriamycin (ADR) -induced lipid petoxidation in rats. After feeding the experimental diets for e weeks. Ann treatment significantly decreased growth performance of rats. But this decrement was not modified by supplementation of vitamin E or coenzyme $Q_{10}$ . Lipid peroxide values of plasma and heart mitochondria were elevated by Ann treatment. But these values were significantly decreased according to vitamin E or coenzyme $Q_{10}$ supplementation. Adriamycin treatment elevated glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity of rats, but this increment was modified by vitamin E supplementation. There was a tendency of higher superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in ADR-treated rats. However, vitamin E or coenzyme $Q_{10}$ administration reduced this enzyme activity. With ADR treatment, arachidonic acid (20 : 4) was greatly increased, but docosahexaenoic acid (22 : 6) was not detected. Arachidonic acid was decreased and docosahexaenoic acid increased by supplementation of higher level of vitamin E or coenzyme $Q_{10}$ . Present data showed that dietary vitamin E and coenzyme $Q_{10}$ influenced on ADR-induced lipid peroxidation in rats, and also the degree of antioxidative effect was greater in vitamin E-supplemented rats.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cyanate methacylate on the shear bond strengths to bovine dentin surfaces as a dentin primers. Seven experimental adhesives were made with different mass fraction of Isocyanatoetylme-thacrylate (IEM), 40wt% HEMA (Wako Pure Chemical Industries Osaka, Japan), 0.6% camphoroquinone, 0.4% amine and ethanol as balance dentin bonding agents (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12%) were made and applied on the surface of bovine dentin specimens of 7 experimental groups. Shear bond strengths were measured using a universal testing machine (Instro 4466). To identify the ratio and modes of cohesive failures, microscopic examinationn was performed. The ultra-structure of resin tags were observed under scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows ; 1) A higher shear bond strengths (33.62 MPa) in group 8% of Cyanate methacrylate to dentin were found, but there were no statistically significancy between Groups (p > 0.05). 2) The higher ratio of cohesive failures mode in group 2, 6, an 10% could be seen than that in any other groups. 3) A shorter resin tags were observed in all experimental groups. This could be resulted that the preventing from the cyanate methacrylate penetrate into dentin owing to reacting it with dentin collagen. Therefore the resin tags were shorter in lengths. Whether the higher bonding strengths of dentin bonding agents can be affected was not been assured with statistic results. The results indicated that the relation between tensile strengths of the dentin adhesives to bovine dentin and resin tags formed into the dentin could not affected. The main reason of increasing the shear bond strength to bovine dentin in experimental groups could not be assured.

고혈압에서 지질대사 이상은 빈번히 나타나는 현상으로, 지질대사 이상에 관여하는 유전자들은 고혈압의 발병원인을 규명하기 위한 후보 유전자로 인식되어 왔다. 이에 본 연구에서는 paraoxonase 2(PON2) 유전자에 존재하는 Cys311Ser다형성을 유전자 표지로 이용하여 한국인 집단에서 이 유전자 표지가 고혈압과 관련성이 있는 지를 조사하고자 하였다. 연구 대상은 총 195명으로, 이들 중에서 82명은 고혈압 환자 군이었고, 나머지 113명은 정상 혈압 군이었다. PON2 유전자의 Cys311Ser 다형성을 분석하기 위해서 중합효소 연쇄반응과 제한 효소인 Dde Ⅰ처리를 수행하여 유전자형을 결정하였다. 연구 결과, Cys/Ser이 형접합체를 갖는 사람들이 고혈압군에서 유의하게 높은 빈도로 나타났으며(P<0.05),다른 신체 계측치 및 혈청내 지질 농도와는 유의한 관련성을 나타내지 않았다. 본 연구에서 관찰된 이러한 관련성이 기능적인 연관인지 혹은 연관불평형에 의한 결과인지에 대해서는 보다 더 많은 연구 대상을 이용한 추시를 통해 밝혀질 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

OQ-21을 암·수 ICR계 마우스에 복강투여 하여 급성독성을 측정한 결과 최대용량 투여군에서도 사망한 동물은 관찰되지 않았다. 그리고 시험동물을 부검하여 육안 관찰한 결과 OQ-21 투여군은 대조군과 전혀 차이가 없었고 실제 독성도 비교적 낮은 것으로 판단된다. 또한 OQ-21이 혈과에 수축 반응에 영향을 미치는 지를 연구한 결과 용량 의존적으로 phenylephirne에 의한 혈관 수축을 증가시킴을 관찰하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 OQ-21은 급성독성이 약한 것으로 생각되지만 혈관 수축에 미치는 영향은 앞으로 인체 안전성에 관하여 검토하여야 할 과제로 사료된다.

The effect of Chlorella hot water extract (CE) on hyperglycemia in streptozotocin- induced diabetic rats has not been studied. Therefore, hypoglycemic effect of CE in type I streptozotocin- induced diabetic rats was studied. Rats were fed a semisynthetic diet supplemented with either 3% (the STZ+CE3) and 6% (the STZ+CE6) CE or no supplement the Normal and the STZ-Control rats for 4 weeks. The concentrations of fasting and non-fasting blood glucose were higher in the STZ-Control rats than in the Normal rats, but this rise was lowered in the STZ+CE3 and the STZ+CE6 rats. Serum insulin concentrations were decreased with STZ injection, however, the decreased levels were almost restored to the Normal level with CE supplementation. The increased serum fructosamine levels associated with hyperglycemia were decreased with the CE treatment. The morphology of pancreatic islets in the Normal rat was round and maintained a typical arrangement. The STZ-Control pancreatic beta-cells were found to have significant swelling and severely morphological damaged, however, pancreatic tissue damage by STZ in the CE-supplemented diet group was ameliorated. This study shows that Chlorella hot water extract had a hypoglycemic effect on the STZ-diabetic rats via either increased insulin secretion during recovery or the prevention of STZ-induced pancreatic damage.
